Saudi Arabia Doesn't Just Want Vinícius, in Brazil They Warn Real Madrid

The Saudi investment fund has set its sights on this player from Real Madrid

For several days now, it has been suggested that Vinícius Junior might leave Real Madrid to play in Saudi Arabia. According to various media reports, the Saudi investment fund is offering the Brazilian 1000 million euros for the next five seasons. That is, 200 "kilos" per year. Additionally, he would be the ambassador for the 2034 World Cup, which is held there.

However, it seems that it doesn't end there. In Brazil, specifically the newspaper GEGLOBO,says that in the Middle East they have set their sights on Rodrygo Goes, who played a great game against Brest yesterday. The former Santos player has also caught attention and they are interested in acquiring his services.

The former Santos player is playing remarkably well in recent games. In Valdebebas, they are pleased with his performance, and the coaching staff considers him an essential pillar for the crucial months of the campaign. He, meanwhile, hasn't shown any signs of wanting to leave the institution and embark on a change of scenery in his sports career.

After all, he is only 24 years old, and leaving Santiago Bernabéu would mean stepping away from the soccer spotlight. Florentino Pérez and his closest associates hope he is wise and doesn't intend to throw his career overboard. In Madrid, they believe these players will continue to receive such offers over the years.

For now, there is calm

Regarding this matter, there is no major alarmism in the white house. The top officials are confident that the former Santos player, who has a contract in force until 2027, wishes to continue at the club. However, his renewal, just like Vinícius Junior's, will be a topic to address sooner rather than later.

This information coming from the player's home country doesn't go unnoticed by any "heavyweight" at Real Madrid. They know it's an issue they will have to deal with, and it's a result of having the best in the world. However, they must be the ones to decide what to do with their sports career.
